Really? Made up by whom?

If so then it made it to dictionaries and it is a noun that means an orthodox Muslim or a scholar in Islamic studies and for this see

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/islamist

So would you like to change your mind?

What is so funny here?or is this a nervous LOL?

Hello: How dare you telling us what is in an Arabic language qamoos aw ma3jam (oh qamoos aw ma3jam? I do not translate Arabic for wannabe Arabs like you) you do not speak, read or write Arabic and you do not even know how to use ma3jam aw qamoos lel lugha al-3arabiyya so do us a favor and stick to Urdu

Shame on you

>which indicates it being bastardized.

Hello: remember the old KISS principle ? shame on you

>Its use carres the ignorant stubborness that calling Native Americans "Indians" does/did...

Oh the new tablighee topos: al-hunud al-humr and a Muslim that cares about the native people of this land! Sobhanallah

Do us a favor and learn some Arabic the language of your Arab masters before you post ...
